At the PRO headquarters, the future of youth mental health and connection is taking shape.

This year, in partnership with global design and innovation firm IDEO.org and with funding provided by the OpenAI Foundation, young people at PRO brought their lived experiences, creativity, and fresh perspectives together to reimagine what's possible for youth mental health and connection.

On November 5, PRO Youth and IDEO.org are proud to share new youth-led research on AI and mental wellbeing. After nearly a year of working alongside young people, we're officially launching the exciting prototype that came out of our co-design process.

Come with us as we pull back the curtain and explore what the future could hold. Join us virtually on November 5 at 10:00 AM PST for the unveiling of our prototype.

The next generation shouldn't have to wait for the future of mental health to be built for them. They should be the ones building it.

❤️🎗️ IT’S RED RIBBON WEEK🎗️❤️

Red Ribbon Week is a time to raise awareness about the importance of preventing alcohol, to***co, smoking, other drug use, and violence in our communities.
Prevention starts with education, open conversations, positive role models, and the choices we make every day. Together we can help children, youth, and families build healthy habits, develop positive relationships, and create safer communities.

❤️ How can you make a difference?
🔴 Talk with children and teens about making safe, healthy choices.
🔴 Encourage positive activities and healthy ways to manage stress.
🔴 Be a positive role model for those around you.
🔴 Support prevention programs in your school and community.
🔴 Remind others that asking for help is a sign of strength.

Every conversation matters. Every healthy choice counts. And every person can make a difference!

Let’s work together to promote healthy minds, healthy bodies, and stronger communities.
🎗️ Small Choices Today. A Healthier Tomorrow.

What happens when we put innovation directly into the hands of young people and give them the tools, resources, and opportunity to bring their boldest ideas to life? At PRO Youth & Families, we set out to explore that very question.

In partnership with global design and innovation firm IDEO.org, young people within our network brought their lived experiences, creativity, and fresh perspectives together to reimagine what's possible for youth mental health and connection.

This World Mental Health Day, PRO Youth and IDEO.org are proud to share new youth-led research on AI and mental wellbeing. After nearly a year of working alongside young people, we're officially launching the exciting prototype that came out of our co-design process.

This November, come with us as we pull back the curtain and explore what the future could hold. Join us virtually for the unveiling of our prototype on Thursday, November 5 at 10 AM PT.

The next generation shouldn't have to wait for the future of mental health to be built for them. They should be the ones building it.

PRO Youth was able to attend Soluna's Big Day of Action at the State Capitol! The event brought youth, families, and community leaders to raise awareness around youth suicidality because preventive mental health extends beyond clinical support. It takes place every day across communities, in big and small ways. Thank you to Soluna for hosting us!
